biotite.structure.alphabet
#
A subpackage for converting structures to structural alphabet sequences.
Structural alphabets represent the local geometry of each residue in a structure as
symbol in a sequence.
This allows using sequence-based functionality from biotite.sequence
on
structural data.
For each supported structural alphabet, this subpackage provides a conversion function
that converts each chain of a given structure into a Sequence
object from the
respective structural alphabet.
Note that the structural alphabets use lower-case letters as symbols, in order to distinguish them better from the nucleotide and amino acid alphabets.
